Laughing Stock

Subtle legions can't disguise bitter subterfuge and lies
Clawing their way back into the light
Stark division draws a line, putting progress on the dime
Now there has got to be a way to set things right
Stuck on a wild elevator
No up or down, just see ya later
Lock and load the next misdirection
Look around, there's no one laughing now
Ha Ha Ha

You're an asshole and you're bringing me down
If you were standing there on fire no one would piss to put you out
You're an asshole that's for sure
Wondering why you're still hanging around
Who gives a shit, yeah there's the door
And curious why your life has been so hard
No direction, how did you get this far?
Second chances, well I counted eight or ten
Open up that mouth
Prove us right again
You're an asshole
And I don't think you're turning around today
Still you're curious why it never goes your way
Open up that mouth and ruin someone's day
Second chances, well I counted eight or ten
Open up your fucking mouth and prove us right again
You're an asshole
And I don't think I want you around today
You're an asshole
And I don't think I want you around today
You're an asshole

Casual Truman

Nocturnal forces taking hold again, so damn uninterested
In clawing back the peaceful silence of the night
No triumph from the industry
It's all just mystery
What happens when all the fuel's run dry?
The world is upside down
In a blender spinning round
Where is up and who is down?
Lay down the head to go to sleep, but in stillness silence creeps
Can't fight the memories in the night
Can't fight the memories in the night
There's nothing left to stop it all just caving in
Can't fight the memories
In the darkness where does it all begin
Can't fight the memories in the night

Flying Buttress

Timebomb ticking like a heart attack
No choice, no vote, no turning back
Look around for a well worn epithet
You don't know if ya know what ya wanna know
You can't hear what you really don't wanna hear
You won't have anything bothering you
Every day turns up with shame, like a dog without a name
Now who's pulling on your leash?
There is no one at the wheel, this was not part of the deal
Now the captive's been released
You've got no aim, you've got no aim...
You don't know if ya know what ya wanna know
You don't hear what you really don't wanna hear
You won't have anyone bothering
You won't have anyone bothering
You won't have anyone bothering
You won't have anyone bothering you!

Now you're fixing to tell me it's all gone to shit
Don't stand around in the pouring rain thinking you won't get wet
Please lie and tell me that it's something I did
Please tell me anything at all
Got a lot on your mind?
Got a lot on your plate?
Say you got a couple of problems?
Maybe I could relate
Please lie and tell me that it's something I said
Please tell me anything at all
Got a lot on your mind?
Got a lot on your plate?
Say you got a couple of problems?
Maybe I could relate

Look before you leap into my heart now
Make up your mind, it'll come to you somehow, right now
Catapulted into the fray
Only to retreat back to the sweet mundane
Keep saying all those words, they ring hollow
Quit dragging around the pill you can't swallow, alone
Terrified of what's in store
Wanting less, needing more
Can this be what you waited for?
Stop telling yourself that you've got no way
Break out and find the hope again someday, some way
Now you're rising above the fray
No retreat, no escape
Can this be what you waited for?
Look before you leap into my heart now..

Rear Admiral

As the waves come crashing over the Admiral's staying dry
Hidden deep in sorrow's cabin, left alone, he sits to cry
Take that list, check it over, and then find out what you missed
There's no excuse for deprivation, how many asses have you kissed?
SOS
Is there anybody out there looking in?
We'll all go down together
All go down together
We'll all go down together
When we sink
The dawn it moves in oh so quickly, til you can't see another sign
Of all that pain you left behind you, trapped inside your brittle mind
One more trip upon the ocean, tread water that flows clear
Now I'm gonna take you sideways, deep in your atmosphere
SOS
Is there anybody in there looking out?
We'll all go down together
All go down together
All go down together
When we sink
We'll all go down together
When we sink

Trust in we, close your mind
Chew on the lies then swallow
Take your time, fall in line
Pretend to lead then follow
They want to have it all
So they're gonna take it all
They'll take us all
Flash of light, clear as day
Wake up to fascist commandos
Fight or flight, wrong or right
There's not a horse in the stable
They want to have it all
So they're gonna take it all
They're gonna take us all
They want to have it all
So they're gonna take it all
They want to have it all
They're gonna take it all
They'll take us
Brick by brick
Brick by brick
Brick by brick
